Movies and video games often struggle to truly capture each other’s magic, but RoboCop: Rogue City breaks that mold. Developed by Teyon and released in 2023, this action-adventure FPS takes you back to the gritty streets of “Old Detroit,” echoing the essence of the iconic RoboCop films.
If ’80s action movies are your jam, you’ll find this game is spot on. With a nostalgic yet ultra-violent vibe, players step into the shoes of RoboCop, voiced by none other than Peter Weller himself. The mission is clear: tackle Wendell Antonowsky, the villain vying for control over the city. As RoboCop, you’re armed with the signature Auto 9 pistol, which can be swapped for weapons from fallen foes. Expect plenty of intense, blood-pumping action as you navigate this PG18-rated adventure.
Despite some technical hiccups and a rather straightforward main story, the game is a visual treat powered by UE5, offering a fun and nostalgic ride for fans. The journey takes you to well-known locations like the Omni Consumer Products (OCP) HQ, with side missions adding depth to your cop duties. Completing everything should take you around 20 hours, making for an engaging experience.
RoboCop: Rogue City combines a simple skill tree with ample fan service, delivering pure, unapologetic fun. Currently, thanks to the Steam Summer Sale, you can grab this gem for only $4.99—a whopping 90% discount.
To dive into this adrenaline-fueled world, make sure your system is ready to handle UE5 technologies like Lumen and Nanite. Get ready for a nostalgic blast from the past with a modern twist!
